    NFL Divisional Blanket: Taking a first look at NFC, AFC championship matchups
    After a lackluster wild-card round, there was a lot to savor this divisional weekend. From Matt Ryan’s varied and brilliant attack, and the former Rutgers secondary picking off the Texans for the Patriots, to Aaron Rodgers and Mason Crosby staring down the Cowboys’ game rookies, and a defensive battle between the Steelers and Chiefs, the divisional games were a lot of fun (well, mostly on Sunday and not counting Jason Garrett’s clock management). But that’s all ..

    Steelers' Le'Veon Bell wants to avenge loss to Patriots
    KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- The most interesting thing Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le'Veon Bell said after another record-setting playoff performance had nothing to do with his numbers. He didn't want to celebrate his 170 yards or the way his team rode his back for 30 carries in an 18-16 AFC Divisional win over Kansas City. Instead, Bell set the tone with one quick comment about Pittsburgh's next opponent, the New England Patriots. "We have a little chip on our shoulders," Bell said of next Sun..

  • Falcons to face Packers at Dome in NFC championship game

    The calculations for the Falcons regarding their potential NFC championship seemed simple. Take on Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers at the Georgia Dome? Or go to Dallas to face the top seed and its star rookies? Yet the answer didn’t seem obvious. After the Falcons beat the Seahawks at the Dome Saturday, coach Dan Quinn said he wasn’t sure if he’d pull for the Packers, although he wanted a home game “for the fans.” “Past that, the coaching side of me and the matchups, I’ll have to go in and..

    Aaron Rodgers made sure GOAT isn't out of reach
    It is possible that no Green Bay Packers quarterback will ever make a play to match Bart Starr's sneak to win the Ice Bowl a half century ago. In subzero, subhuman conditions, Starr beat the Dallas Cowboys on sheer willpower at a time when the NFL would never consider pushing back a game like it did on Sunday for the Pittsburgh Steelers and Kansas City Chiefs.Editor's PicksAfter the Packers QB lit up the Cowboys on the way to the NFC Championship Game -- Green Bay's eighth straight win -- you mi..
